President Jacob Zuma has extended his heartfelt condolences on the passing of South African gospel music star, Mr Lundi Tyamara.

'We are deeply saddened by the loss of a talented artist at such a young age. This is yet another huge loss for the country in a short space of time. He was one of the best gospel artists that the country has ever produced. We are with his family in thoughts and prayers during this trying period. May his soul rest in peace,' President Zuma said.
